Hallo there, Does anyone have any knowledge of the Institute of Genealogical and Heraldic Studies? A year or two ago they had a competition for the best family history for which there would be a prize of about £350 with second and third prizes of something - I forget what - and they would publish the winner. I did not enter, but I wonder what the mailing list subscribers know about the Institute. Did anyone enter? I thought about it but wasn't sure that even if I actually won, which I did not think I would have done, that I wanted it published. Vera
